I remeber i was sitting in the DFAC at Fort Campbell Kentucky when the Headline News alert came across. You could hear the sadness in the entire dining facility. It was crushing to hear. Imagine the older Americans that watched him salute his father's casket.

People always forget the other 2 people who die that day

It was live on Australian tv too. It is still as sad now as it was at the time.

This is the typical case of a young, inexperienced, over-confident pilot who is not certified to fly by instruments at night or in bad weather but doing exactly that and getting himself and his passengers killed in the process, just like Buddy Holly's pilot and so many others like that since then. According to this video JFK JR. was not even instrument-trained, meaning he did not know how to use a gyroscope, among other things. His money, his wealth, his financial ability to buy an expensive plane is what got him killed in the end.

You are so right! It is that reckless attitude of the ultra rich and famous! None of us are invincible regardless of economic, political, or royal lineage!

[@muffs55mercury61]

Yes once the clouds covered the area they were doomed.

[@sueandpatrick]

He was reckless and totally irresponsible. He was totally responsible for the deaths of his passengers. The leftist media needs to stop sugar coating the Kennedies.

[@PabloGonzalez-hv3td]

The problem is that he was LEGALLY qualified on paper leaving the decision to fly that night to Jr. and no one else. Sadly the conditions were at the fringes of his experience and skill set.

Rumor has it JFK Jr. was going to run for NYC Senate

My mom came home from new york when the news came and then she said fellow passengers where quite busy staring out their que then she ask whats the fuzz was all about and she hear that the lady guard said john kennedy jr had just pass by meaning their about to board their pipper saratoga plane, too bad that my mom doesn’t have a cam phone with her during that time otherwise it would be a great last souvenir shot of jfk jr!

[@mariefortunato4737]

Never have forgotten that horrible tragedy!

[@MargDBX]

And we know who caused it.

[@u.s.m.c.fewproudthemarines2987]

😢😢

[@sueandpatrick]

Read "Ask Not" by Maureen Callahan and learn what really happened. John should NEVER have been flying that night - entitled arrogance killed those women.

[@milagroslp9939]

May they Rest In Peace 🕊🕊🕊

[@justwastingmytime852]

Thank God He did not followed his Dad's footsteps!

[@joytimmons]

He should have followed in his own steps.

[@graysonconroy3935]

[@patriciaschuster1371]

Junior was a spoiled brat, Mr. Ego, who willfully killed others in his stunt besides himself.

[@graysonconroy3935]
